Excellent quotes, mediocre designs.

We artists are indestructible, even in a prison cell or concentration camp I would be almighty in my own world of art. Even if I had to paint my pictures with my wet tongue on the dusty floor of my cell. – Pablo Picasso

+1.

It’s long past time to get over the graffiti… HEY – I can sign my name with a paint can! Congratulations – you have an opposable thumb and you can spell.

I do like the fact Ivan always finds a way to slip a little erotica in there for us.

Good artists copy; great artists steal.

* This is a favorite phrase of Jobs, but he is (mis)quoting Pablo Picasso. “Lesser artists borrow; great artists steal” is similarly attributed to Igor Stravinsky, but both sayings may well originate in T. S. Eliot’s dictum: “Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal; bad poets deface what they take, and good poets make it into something better, or at least something different.”

These are fun. Is there a typo in the word insanity or Is that part of the design by someone with the temerity to call themselves ‘unknown’?
What if there were no rhetorical questions?

Do not be afraid of the unknown. Familiarity breeds contempt.

Good catch, Anon. I take back that line about knowing how to spell.
